On the Way to the "(Un)Known"?
This volume brings together twenty-two authors from various countries who analyze travelogues on the Ottoman Empire between the fifteenth and nineteenth centuries. The travelogues reflect the colorful diversity of the genre, presenting the experiences of individuals and groups from China to Great Britain. The spotlight falls on interdependencies of travel writing and historiography, geographic spaces, and specific practices such as pilgrimages, the hajj, and the harem. Other points of emphasis include the importance of nationalism, the place and time of printing, representations of fashion, and concepts of masculinity and femininity. By displaying close, comparative, and distant readings, the volume offers new insights into perceptions of "otherness", the circulation of knowledge, intermedial relations, gender roles, and digital analysis.
Edebiyat Yazıları: Garib-nâme Üzerine
Kırşehir doğumlu olan Âşık Paşa’nın kasd-ı mahsûsa ile Türkçeyi tercih ederek 10.613 beyit gibi geniş bir hacimde telif ettiği Garib-nâme, çok çeşitli konuları ihtiva etmesi münasebetiyle, bir nevî İslamiyetin “Türkçe yaşam kılavuzu”nu oluşturmuştur. Böylece Anadolu coğrafyasında yaşayan Türklerin günlük dilde İslamiyeti ifade etmeleri ve sohbet konusu haline getirebilmeleri mümkün hale gelmiştir. Dolayısıyla eser, bu coğrafyada inşa edilmekte olan yeni kimliğin temellerine, İslamiyetin nüfuz etmesine imkan sağlamasındaki payı bakımından oldukça müstesna bir yere sahiptir. Türk İslam edebiyatçısı ve İslam tarihçisi araştırmacıların ortak çalışmasıyla oluşturulan bu kitap, Garib-nâme’nin muhteva çeşitliliğini, edebî ve tarihî açıdan, tasnif ve tahlil edebilme denemesidir.
Economics and Capitalism in the Ottoman Empire
Is it possible to generate "capitalist spirit" in a society, where cultural, economic and political conditions did not unfold into an industrial revolution, and consequently into an advanced industrial-capitalist formation? This is exactly what some prominent public intellectuals in the late Ottoman Empire tried to achieve as a developmental strategy; long before Max Weber defined the notion of capitalist spirit as the main motive behind the development of capitalism. This book demonstrates how and why Ottoman reformists adapted (English and French) economic theory to the Ottoman institutional setting and popularized it to cultivate bourgeois values in the public sphere as a developmental st...
Patrimonialization on the Ruins of Empire
After the failed Siege of Vienna of 1683, the Ottoman Empire gradually withdrew from Europe. Even so, monumental reminders of its former presence survived across the continent. The contributors to this volume show that the various successor states adopted substantially different approaches towards their Ottoman architectural inheritance. Even within the same countries, different policies appear to have been pursued in different periods, in keeping with differing circumstances. Case studies inquire from diverse vantage points how this heritage has been coped with discursively and materially. Importantly, readers will find that it is almost impossible to disentangle these two levels of action.
